Click the Font button and type the name of the font into the text field. Then click Check. If you got the name correct then the text field's font will change. If it doesn't change keep guessing the name.

I haven't got anymore ideas. Can you put the font in a zip file and upload it here?

If you plan on updating it, would it be possible to add in a drop-down menu to the fonts directory?

To get all availble font names you can do

Code: Show/Hide
String[] names = GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment().getAvailableFontFamilyNames();

can't spell stupid right either icon_wink.gif

Here's a version with a font chooser that will let you pick from a list and show you a preview instantly... source included too.

Could you maybe add an auto-size feature? Thus, when picking new font sizes, it will grow/shrink the whole image to keep them all in line. That, or maybe a test-size button, in which if any font letter goes over into another font's box, it can tell you. Could just be a warning light somewhere.

I made some changes to the original version so it now has a drop down showing the system fonts (see first post for pic and download). I also put font(tileset).def in the zip.

The image does resize when you choose a new font or style. However it probably doesn't work perfectly with all fonts hence the text fields for fine tuning. I'd rather not do some 'get pixel' stuff on every character just to see if it will exceed its allotted rectangle. Some sort of translucent overlay might work, leaving the detection of overlapping characters to the user.
